Hey everyone. Over the last couple months i’ve had a plan in the works to switch my blog over to yardbarker.com. They will help a lot with maintaining the blog, which has been my biggest headache. I’ll be back later with the exact details.

On another note, I have been pain free for about a week and hope to be throwing again soon. I also received my new Oakley prescription glasses for when I’m back on the mound. Should be pretty intimidating. haha. Talk to you later.

First off, you’re a Phillies fan, sucking up to a Spankees fan on his blog. How fucking lame are you? Did your mom breastfeed you until you were 12 or something? Secondly, if you’re old enough to make a Wildthing reference from Major Leagues, you’re way too fucking old to be sucking professional athletes asses! Are you one of those losers who asks grown men for an autograph? How fucking sad is your life? Just eat a bullet and get it over with already!

As I said before, I think you will look intimidating in your new glasses. Now, if you want to up the intimidation factor, just start squinting as if they’re not working. In especially crucial situations, take them off altogether and clip ‘em to your jersey. Trust me on this one….they WILL think twice before digging in ;-)

Seriously though, I’m really glad to hear you’re feeling better. Can’t wait to see you back on the mound!

I kind of take the blame for your injury and season. My seven year old and I bought an autographed ball of yours without consulting my wife on such a large purchase (it’s large to our family). I’ve since come clean after your injury. Hopefully, we’ve reversed the curse.

Thanks for the good news. I think with your new glasses you should change your entrance music during your warm-ups to “wild-thing” like Rick Vaughn in Major League (not because of your location or command but because of the glasses). Plus there aren’t many catchier songs out there.

Great to hear from ya up north!! This blog update is the greatest thing I’ve seen since Lord Stanley’s Cup was presented to the Detroit Red Wings (congrats to any wings fans reading this, but the cup will return to CANADA next season!), that site really brought tears to my eyes, as it does every season.

Anywho, I hope I dig your specs Phil, even though odds are I probably will! One of the greatest Canadian pitchers ever wore the specs and it helped him put together one of the most dominant 3 seasons a closer has ever put together…do you know who it is?? if you didn’t guess it yet, it’s the good ol’ Québécois, Éric Gagné….now with the specs, all we gotta do is put you in the pen, send you up to Canada’s team, and just like Gagné…….GAME OVER!

oh yea, and i told you guys not to get all worried about joba’s first start…i mean after all, he was faced Canada’s team in that outing. with the pressure of starting against the nation of Canada off of his back, he looked alot sharper his second time out versus Kansas City…now once again i leave you with the lyrics to the official song of Canada’s ball club, “OK Blue Jays (Lets Play Ball!)”, with a little suprise at the end ;-)

You’ve got a diamond
You’ve got nine men
You’ve got a hat and a bat
And that’s not all
You’ve got the bleachers
Got ‘em from spring ’til fall
You got a dog and a drink
And the umpire’s call
Waddaya want?
Let’s play ball!

Is that a fly ball
Or is it a seagull
Coming in from the lake
Just to catch the game?
It’s the last inning
Our guys are winning
Dave’s put down a smoker
A strike
And you’ve got no doubt
(You’re out!)
Waddaya want?
Let’s play ball!

OK (OK!)
BLUE JAYS (BLUE JAYS!)
LETS (LETS!) PLAY (PLAY!) BALL!

It’s a beautiful evenin’, fans
At the ballpark
When the game starts
Warm summer breezes
Sun’s goin’ down
And it’s all dark
At the ballpark
But that’s okay…it’s a night game

OK (OK!)
BLUE JAYS (BLUE JAYS!)
LETS (LETS!) PLAY (PLAY!) BALL!

OK (OK!)
BLUE JAYS (BLUE JAYS!)
LETS (LETS!) PLAY (PLAY!) BALL!

Bring on the White Sox
Bring on the BoSox
Bring on the Brewers
The Rangers and the Yankees too
We’ll beat the Indians
We’ll beat the Tigers
We’ll beat the A’s so bad it’ll make
Billy blue
Waddaya want?
Let’s play ball!

OK (OK!)
BLUE JAYS (BLUE JAYS!)
LETS (LETS!) PLAY (PLAY!) BALL!

OK (OK!)
BLUE JAYS (BLUE JAYS!)
LETS (LETS!) PLAY (PLAY!) BALL!

“Joe has had his moments. Trying to lay off that ball, low to the outside part of the plate, he just went after one. Two balls and two strikes on him. Here’s the pitch on the way a swing and a belt! Left field! Way back! BLUE JAYS WIN! The Blue Jays are World Series Champions as Joe Carter hits a three run Home Run in the Ninth inning and the Blue Jays have repeated as World Series Champions! Touch em’ all Joe! You’ll never hit a bigger home run in your life!” – Tom Cheek

Phil, maybe you should get a nice pair of glasses from Schrute farms.
Im sure cousin Mos can make a nice pair for you.
Oh and you def. need to have “Wild Thing” be your new song…it worked for Charlie Sheen in Major League. Great movie.

So glad to hear you’re back to feeling 100%, Phil! I’m really excited to see you back out on the mound, healthy and able to see 100%.

Also, sort of random — I’m sure someone on the Yankees’ training or dietary staff has already mentioned something to you — but the word was that your vision was worse at night. If that’s some ‘night blindness’ going on, a vitamin A supplement (or eating more food with vitamin A in it) can help.

Of course, make sure anything you start taking is kosher by MLB rules. I’d hate to discover that some casual advice you got from this loyal fan got you in trouble.

Hope your next bone scan comes back clear and you can get right back to doing what you do best, sir!

hey man! gr8 to hear ur okay and stuff! can’t wait till u start pitching, and when u start WRITING ON THIS BLOG DAILY instead of just once every month or so, because that stinks but i know ur probebly really busy and stuff, so i’m just missin u a gr8 recovery back and a gr8 summer 2!

a- has more talent in his pinky than he does in his entire body
b- will use his talent to pitch for the Yankees while he writes shitty comments on a blog
c- will rock
d- does NOT have an 89mph fastball.
e- will look freakin awesome in glasses

Phil,
Lovin Joba starting. Moos is an All-Star. Pettitte’s coming back. Chien looks great. Darrels gotta go. Ian can stay injured. And You! We need you back! This time we need you pitching like the ace you are. Rumors that the Yanks are top competitors for CC (not cream cheese) Sabathia. Don’t worry your not in the trade offers this time. The teams looking great. And we need you to come back (with your glasses) looking even better!
Lets Go Yankees,
David

hey 89 mph no balls…get a life and suck it up. Phil hughes is twice the man you will ever be or hope to be…he could out pitch your sorry ass anyday…so have fun pleasuring yourself with a picture of whatever sad thing thing can stand talking to you…which is probably some ugly hairy man.

WOW LOOKEY HERE, NOW THAT THE CHINESE GUY HURT HIS FOOT RUNNING THERE IS ROOM FOR PHIL HUGHES IN THE YANKEES ROTATION.

IT’S TOO BAD HE’S STILL SITTING ON HIS ASS DOWN IN FLORIDA!! HAHAHA, HE’S PLAYING THE YANKEES FOR FOOLS! THIS IS 2 YEARS IN A ROW NOW THAT HE’S GOING TO MISS 3 MONTHS OF THE SEASON!! HAHAHA, SOME FUTURE ACE. MORE LIKE A FUTURE CARL PAVANO!!

I LOVE HOW A 3-4 WEEK INJURY TURNED INTO 3 MONTHS! HE STILL HASNT THROWN A BALL!! INJURY PRONE, SOFT SOB!! HAHAHA, I LOVE IT!!!!!

go big three346231…you’re completely right about fat-ass no balls..hes just mad becuase the yankees can still whip the mets ass with one pitcher compared to their lame rotation anyday…and phil hughes will rock it with those glasses..so shut your mouth.

Wow, as a Canadian who supports the Yankees, I am quite disgusted with the comments of Hank Steinbrenner. What a pussy…its called real baseball, did you AMERICANS FORGET HOW THE GAME IS SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYED!?! Phil, I bet you know what I’m talkin about!

haha aw this is cute. i love how everyone everyone has officially renamed no balls lol. phil, if you actually read these comments you must feel super honored that everyones defending you. id say us pjh yankee fans are a force to be reckoned with =) i wouldnt be too worried about no balls tho. he’s just upset that you can get all of us random people to love you when he cant even get his own ‘friends’ to like him. ;]

I really, really, really want to see you in glasses. Could you see the catchers glove. How did so many people find out about the glasses? Can you post more random pictures of the day? I really love looking at them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your awesome, and so is Ian Kennedy!!!!!!!!!! Tell him to start a blog, or answer more questions, that would be sooooooooo coooooooool! Or, have a blog together. Why is Morgan Ensberg nicknamed Blowfish? I really like guest blogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m looking forward to see you jump back into the mix. We all believe in you and you definitely have the “stuff” to develop into an ace. I still think that Cashman was wise to hold onto you. Santana has seen his best days pass him by.
